I don't know about Ubuntu or Flatpak peculiarities, but if you go to 
Edit > Preferences > sidebar General > section General, you can uncheck 
the splash screen, "tip of the day", and possibly account list setup if 
that is causing annoyance.  I do have account list setup checked, but it 
does not appear when I open GnuCash to my usual books, so that may be a 
Flatpak oddity.  (I'm using Linux, but not an Ubuntu derivative.)

Also, Edit > Preferences > sidebar Scheduled Transactions lets you turn 
off automatically running these when you open your books.  I can't tell 
from your email if that bothers you or not.  I do like "Review created 
transactions" if you want to check that box while you're in there. :)
